+> I got ikiwiki working (sort of) on OpenSolaris today. I ran into this problem too, and wrote a version of asprintf() from scratch which uses more portable APIs:
+
+<code>
+ #include &lt;stdarg.h&gt;
+
+ int
+ asprintf(char **string_ptr, const char *format, ...)
+ {
+ va_list arg;
+ char *str;
+ int size;
+ int rv;
+
+ va_start(arg, format);
+ size = vsnprintf(NULL, 0, format, arg);
+ size++;
+ va_start(arg, format);
+ str = malloc(size);
+ if (str == NULL) {
+ va_end(arg);
+ /*
+ * Strictly speaking, GNU asprintf doesn't do this,
+ * but the caller isn't checking the return value.
+ */
+ fprintf(stderr, "failed to allocate memory\\n");
+ exit(1);
+ }
+ rv = vsnprintf(str, size, format, arg);
+ va_end(arg);
+
+ *string_ptr = str;
+ return (rv);
+ }
+
+</code>

+> I added this after the rest of the #include's in Wrapper.pm, and it seems to work. --Blake
